Announcing Her Campus's 22 Under 22 Most Inspiring College Women 2015

This spring, we at Her Campus set out to find 22 ambitious, talented, and big-thinking current college women to recognize as 2015’s 22 Under 22 Most Inspiring College Women. After receiving 945 powerful nominations, culling through their uber-impressive applications, conducting moving interviews, and speaking with the most glowing of references, we could not be more in awe of the truly aspirational group at which we arrived.

These 22 honorees are influencers on their campus (and beyond) who demonstrate leadership, excel academically, are doing big things in an area that’s important to them, and who have ambitious goals for their future. From serving as a volunteer firefighter, to founding nonprofits and conference series, to publishing books, and so much more, you'll be amazed these collegiettes have time to make it to class!
